Buddy Holly, born in Lubbock, Texas, and just 22 when he died, he began singing country music with high school friends before switching to rock and roll. He then was opening (performing) for various performers, including Elvis Presley. By the mid-1950s, Holly and his band had a regular radio show and toured internationally, playing hits like “Peggy Sue,” “Oh, Boy!,” “Maybe Baby” and “Early in the Morning.” Every thing that Holly wrote was with his own words. Many of which were released after his death. Another crash victim, J.P. “The Big Bopper” Richardson, died at the age of 28. He started out as a disk jockey
